I am planning on making cinnamon rolls for tomorrow morning. How early can I start these without killing the yeast? I was thinking I could start the dough later this afternoon and let it rise in the fridge while we are at my IL's for Christmas Eve celebrations, and then when we get home tonight I can shape them and add the cinnamon, etc. (it'd be 11pm-ish by this point) Can I then put them in the pan and put that back in the fridge till morning? Or am I leaving too much time there and risk killing my yeast? :nails

I plan on making my cinnamon rolls and then sticking them in the fridge overnight too. From what I understand (based on the recipe I'm reading) that seems to be a-okay.

i know you can leave bread overnight to rise - it's recommended by some - slower rise makes smaller bubbles, aka better texture in your bread. But thanks, that helps to hear someone else say it's okay :giggle

Also to mention, I'm not sure if it makes a difference that my recipe is GF. I don't yet know all the "rules" :lol

This is the recipe I'm using:

And this is what it says about overnight:
I've also discovered that you can make these the night before and stop short of baking them. Wrap them up in their pan or glass dish and leave them in the fridge for the night. The next morning you can take them out and bake them and they come out just the same!
